    If the B1G were going to drop N for losing AAU status it would've happened years ago.

    Nebraska entered the B1G in 2011 and lost AAU later that same year. 

    lots more AAU schools will be available shortly...drop dead weight in nebraska and blame them for losing aau and add aau virginia and or north  carolina......easy math

    " ... it'd be hard ... " <- meaning not impossible.

    The numbers would have to work. That's any deal: it must be mutually beneficial. 

    But it would be hard to walk away from B1G affiliation. 

    However, no worries, UCLA will add hockey before they'd invite UND. 

    wonder if both ucla AND usc both add varsity hockey quickly....

    So how much would the PAC 12 have to distribute to get USC and UCLA to change their minds? Know it won’t happen, but guesses? It would be offset by less travel. 

    nothing..it's money and prestige....no one turns down a big 10 offer

    He actually gets things done unlike ol 2 lunch Brown. The roads are a disaster but he can’t control the weather.

    if more people only knew what "2 lunch brown" meant..................

    From what I read the grant of (media) rights the ACC has is as tight of a contract as you'll find and will be hard to get out of. 

    but if all 12 agree to make it a free for all.......sounds like they are at 8 already

  6. drake's conference status is more confusing than und's!!!!! one call from fenton and that would be fixed!!!!!!!!!!

    The Drake Bulldogs are the intercollegiate athletics teams that represent Drake University, located in Des Moines, Iowa, United States. The Bulldogs' athletic program is a member of the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) [3] and competes at the NCAA Division I level.[4] Drake also sponsors teams in the Pioneer Football League, Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, and Summit League. Drake's live bulldog mascot is Griff II; the costumed mascot is Spike; and the school colors are blue and white.

  7. since the summit is one school away to becoming the old NCC maybe they could rebrand as the The North Conference or the NC and use GOT themes across the conference...play the song "a song of ice and fire" before every conference match........have a direwolf as the conference logo....all the ushers at the betty could be dressed like serving wenches....fenton could rule from the iron throne.

    so many possibiites.

    If only the Mountain West or American Athletic Conference would call NDSU, we could be having these fun "what-ifs" in Fargo.

    mcfooly is an idiot...

    but this article shows that fenton needs to leverage Summit Football NOW.......mvfc members are bitches to the mvc...time to take the football and go home.

    It is interesting to see the changes in the Summit League over the last 20 years.  Today the best ways to describe the Summit League:

    • National Research Universities (R1 or R2) - R&D Exp $25 million to $165 million
    • Flagship Universities (Rural) / Urban (Public/Private)
    • Academic Spending over $200 million to $500 million
    • US News National Rank (100 to 300)
    • Med School, Law School, or Land Grant

     These are the schools that the tSL should be considering as future members.

    Currently, the only outlier on this is Oral Roberts.

    did not know that oral bob was that "bad".....

    You can see that in many ways the Summit League has passed the MVC outside of UIC.  This comment is in reference to school profile.

    haha..before i clicked for page 300 i was gonna say.......now do the mvc!

    this is what i was trying to do with population (non-metro!) and endowments....

    This is what Fenton needs to be selling to a few football playing MVC members...msu, nia, drake.....

    Nice work on the spreadsheets!
